My favorite thing about UP North is the cherry festival in Traverse City.
Upnorth is the easy going lifestyle and pace, the breathtaking beauty evolving with each and every season. the millions of stars high above in the deep night sky as you sit around the campfire with family and friends, the dancing vibrant colors of the aurora borealis, the sound of the waves crashing up and over the pebbles on the shoreline, the sounds of seagulls flying high in the breeze on a warm summers day, the peaceful stillness as big fluffy snowflakes gently drift down and blanket everything in its sparkling winter whites. its the bluest of blues in Lake Michigan and the greenest of greens in the forests of the UP. It’s home and where my heart is. <3
I always feel like I’m on an adventure when I head Up North. Being a native Texan, I have so much exploring to do in Michigan.
My favorite thing up north would have to be all the memories I have of the family spending time near the traverse bay. Just a boy with a smile getting to see my parents and sister enjoy spending time together.
My favorite thing about Northern Michigan is driving around the rolling hills on a sun shines day. Admiring the trees that tower over you. Stepping outside for a hike through the dunes to Lake Michigan, smelling the pines. Sitting on the beach and watching the waves roll in. Catching a stellar sunset. Then enjoying some great local music in downtown TC.
My favorite thing about being Up-North is the simple beauty of Pure Michigan.
My favorite thing about Up North is how it seems to be a completely separate world. Everything is more peaceful and relaxed. It takes you away with it. There is never enough time to be spent exploring all thaf Michigan has to offer for us.
I love the serenity of up north. I love the water views. I love the blue skies. Up north is always a vacation for me; so it is usually restful, quiet and recharging. I love up north.
Everything is always changing and there are always new adventures!
For me, it’s the lake Michigan coastline. Frankfort, Eberta, Empire, Glen Haven and Glen Arbor. Also Beulah/Benzonia (where I graduated from High School). I know the area quite well because I grew up in the Grand Traverse/Benzie Counties. I moved away, but something keeps drawing me back up there (mountain bike trails and lakes).
